Bold Acts Number Two and Three

Bold Act #1- At some point during Alt (which I leave for in a couple of hours), I will be wearing the above dress and shoes... Together.

Yes, I realize for some this is not bold in the least. I know that some consider leopard "a neutral" and wear it with with abandon -- with prints, with stripes, with prints and stripes.

I am not one of these people.

For me, leopard is a print, and (again, for me) prints are best teamed-up with with neutrals. So pairing the leopard shoes with a red and black print dress adorned with silver studs (the dress alone is waaay out of my wheelhouse) is a bold move on my part. Big time.

Re: No. 2... WHAT?! SUPREMELY jealous over here. As a former journo-turned-medical device PR-gal, I often find myself wanting to go back to "the other side." Someday, maybe. In the meantime, I am VERY happy for you. What an asset you will be to a fantastic pub.

AHAHA!! Congrats to the muthafreak'n max! Yeah! Yeah! Jumping up and down!!! Sloping my drink all over the place (it is like 2:30 here right now, so it is a metaphorical drink)!! Girl, you are gonna rock the hell out of that outfit. Joslyn power!

I was going to tell you I too feel animal prints should be teamed with neutrals but then you mentioned a minor detail like leaving your job of 13 years?! Wow! That's what I call following one's dreams! You're an inspiration. Congratulations and looking forward to more details!

Love the dress, which as my sis mentioned was her new years dress. Super hot with the shoes. Re. the job - mega congrats! Sometimes all we need is a small shift to get the ball rolling. So happy for you.

wow! congratulations! that sounds like an amazing opportunity. I am trying to incorporate more bold acts into my life in 2012. it's hard! my friends don't "think" like I do and they tend to make fun of anything different or bold. but I'm going to rock my navy and green striped shirt and be bold. why not? it's nothing compared to resigning and starting a new chapter in your life.

And you worked it Mama! Was, per usual rocked by your style and grace. And left coveting your dress, stripes and orange nails. I think a shopping trip in Dallas is a must, stat. Really more time with you is a must - whatever we actually do. xo
